California legislators have passed one of the strongest measures so far to protect health care providers operating under shield laws.
California Passes Bill Allowing Omission of Patients’ Names From Abortion Pill Bottles
The intent is to protect health care providers who send the pills to patients in states with abortion bans, and to reassure patients who fear they could be identified.

🖤 #BIAW2025 is a reminder: infertility is a human rights issue — and Black communities deserve care that affirms, informs, and supports.

Support organizations like BMMA that are pushing for systems and solutions that center Black reproductive futures.

Everyone deserves to start their family on their own terms, but Black women face barriers and inequities in access to fertility care. This Black (in)Fertility Awareness Week, I join Sister Song & @blackmamasmatter.bsky.social in calling for solutions.

Disability Justice is Reproductive Justice. Our fight for bodily autonomy is one & the same. Reproductive Justice means we ALL have the power & resources to make informed decisions about our own bodies. That includes people with disabilities. That includes all of us.
